He said in his post that there wasn't any confirmation he was dead.
..If he is, well that just stinks.
He contributed a great amount during his life :]

Yeah, the guy said that no one major, like CNN and others, could confirm the story true.
I think that's kind of weird.

It reminds me of Jodi Sweetin from Full House.
They said she died in a car crash and people believed it for months.
Definitely not true though, lol.

Reading is fun...try reading the whole thing....literally less than 10 seconds more of reading.


I got on the phone with a friend of mine who knows Winston and got the confirmation.

he didn't even say where his friend got the confirmation so that just kept me skeptical until those other links

RIP Stan Winston - second big guy to die within the last week, Tim Russert being the first
